Geocache Description:


The site: Benton Cemetery in Benton Township was established in 1871 when an infant of Elizabeth Moore passed away. Two years later, Elizabeth died, presumably due to complications from childbirth, and her infant daughter she had just given birth to died 4 days later. There are older stones here for the children of Mary and Lorenzo Green, but there is no indication that the Greens lived in Kansas prior to 1870.

The story: No history lesson this time - I was in the area and saw this cemetery didn't have a cache, so I decided to place one. I don't know much about this cemetery or the history, so I'll spare you my usual essay. 

The cache: You're looking for a small tube in a tree (the obvious spot). Very little room for swag, but the FTF is welcome to the pill container that is inside.
